WEIGHT OF A SIGNATURE.
A Wonderful Pair of Scales That Weighs
the Hairs On n Mans Head.


the Hairs On a Mans Head.
In a Broadway store, which is a
branch of IL big out-of-town scale fac
tory, are more different kinds of scales
than most people imagine were ever
made. There are specimens of every
grade of weighing machines, from the
big track scales that can weigh a rail-
road car full of pig lead down to tiny
balance so fine that it is kept in glass
case which could be carried in ones
pocket The smallest scales of all are
made for delicate tests in assaying.
They are adjusted to milligrammes and
are so sensitive and SO fine that an eye
lash can be correctly weighed on them.
You can write your name on slip of
paper with lead pencil and then find
out just how much your signature
weighs. The weights are the mere
atoms of aluminium, not half so large as
the head of pin. The machine is so
delicate that little dust blowing in
from the street might affect its work
ings, and it has to be carefully cleaned
after each exposure. 1t is made of
aluminium, platinum and the finest
tempered steel, and people do not use it
as plaything as general rule. 1t
cost as much as its weight in gold.
Every once in awhile skeptic comes
along who doesn't believe it will weigh
| A hair from mans head. and if the
manager of the store has plenty of time
at his disposal he will bring out the
wonderful little machine and operate it.
| A reporter happened in the other day
while the operation was going on. The
manager took slip of ordinary writing
paper and weighed it. 1t weighed
thirty-eight milligrammes. He ther
gave it to the visitor with a lead pencil
| and the visitor wrote John Henry
Larned" on it in a full. free hand
Then the manager put the slip back oil
the scale and fixed the little weights
When he struck balance again he hat
forty-three milligrammes on the othe
side. The signature weighed precisel.
five milligrammeS.
Then the man pulled hair out OF hi
head, and the manager found it weighe'
three milligrammes. An eye-las
weighed little less than one mill
vramme. and hair from his whisker
weighed five milligrammes.
The manager showed how easy it wa
to count the hair on mans head. A
the rate of three milligrammes to a hal
there would be 5000 hairs in an ounce
The man probably had three ounces
hair on his head and therefore 24.0O
hairs.-N. Y. Nail and Express.
